Abstract

Tradescantia ohiensis Raf. (Ohio spiderwort/blue-jacket) is a perennial herb native to North America that has become widely established in China. The chloroplast (cp) genome of T. ohiensis was assembled using Illumina sequencing reads. It is 164,140 bp in length with an A + T-biased nucleotide composition, and comprises a large single-copy (LSC) region (91,248 bp), a small single-copy (SSC) region (18,426 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (27,233 bp). The cp genome harbors a total of 112 gene species with 19 of them being completely or partially duplicated and 18 of them possessing one or two introns. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that T. ohiensis is most closely related to the congeneric T. virginiana.
